… But of course, it’s always better when you know some of the songs. I didn’t know them that well the first time I saw Lowest of the Low in concert, but I’d at least listened to the whole album (they only had one then) 2 or 3 times beforehand. Helped that I liked it right off.

I like the “Everything Now” album. You should have listened to it ahead! Harder when “listening to music” isn’t part of your normal daily activities, though.

It’s challenging to enjoy a show when you’re only semi-familiar with the band/performer. That was the case for me with Arcade Fire — I recognized maybe 2 of their songs (was more familiar with Broken Social Scene). I still mostly enjoyed it, because they were very entertaining, but it would have been a lot better if I’d at least bothered to listen to their most recent CD.
